Heating and Cooling

As much as half of the energy used in your home can go towards heating and cooling. Making good decisions about your HVAC system can have a large effect on your energy bills. Maintaining your HVAC systems is key. If you don’t maintain your AC unit, Heat and Ventilation systems, they will not work efficiently and have a greater chance of breaking down.

There are several easy maintenance steps you can take to keep your systems running efficiently.

Change Your Air Filter Regularly

Check your filter every month. Especially in the months that have heavier usage, winter and summer months. If it looks dirty and clogged, change it. If not you can leave it in, but we recommend you change it at least every 3 months. A dirty filter will slow the air down and make the system work harder to heat or cool your home, costing your more money.

Tune Up Your HVAC Equipment Yearly

Just as a tune-up of your car can improve your gas mileage, a tune-up of your heating and cooling system can improve the comfort and efficiency of your home or office.

Install a Programmable Thermostat

A programmable thermostat is ideal for individuals that are gone at set periods of time. By correctly using a programmable thermostat you can save up to $180 a year on energy costs.

Duct Cleaning and Sealing Air Leaks

Ducts that move air from your furnace, air conditioner or heat pump are often big wasters of energy.
